MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter Chapter 53

Chapter 53: A Sudden Change

Li Yao frowned as he watched the Boss slice his two Arrow Towers into halves. He took small steps backward and attacked.

The Boss quickly approached Li Yao and crossed his arms. The moment the two bladed arms glowed green, Li Yao drew out his pistol and shot at him.

Bang…

The high-speed revolving bullet dug into his arm, the glowing light suddenly dimmed and he fell onto one knee. He gripped his arm with a pained expression.

The key to Skill Break was a very interesting mechanism, it would only be triggered when players solo a wild Boss.

That was when the Boss would use skills or attacks, there was a process where the Boss would charge his power. When players fight Bosses in groups, there would be no such mechanisms. Of course, the players could still use special skills to interrupt the Boss’s skills, but that would just be a skill interruption, not a Skill Break.

During a one-on-one, players would have to seize the Bosses’ charging moment and attack the Bosses right on their power node. As long as the attack breaks their defense, the attack would break their skills and attacks, resulting in a repercussion.

Although the repercussion would not reduce the Boss’s Health, it would temporarily disable the Boss’s ability to move and resist.

In contrast, Bosses could also perform a Skill Break on players, and it was even more powerful. Even when the Boss was facing a group of players, he could perform Skill Breaks on them.

Li Yao had seen many fatalities that resulted from Skill Breaks. One was when a Healer was using a healing spell, the Boss unleashed a skill at the same time, breaking the healing spell and the Healer could no longer use any healing spells for the next few seconds. What happened next was horrible, without the use of Healing spells to recover Health, dealing with the Boss’s next skill meant death.

Li Yao broke the Boss’s Berserker’s Blade Dance and used Shadow Flip to reach the Boss’s side. He used the rapier in his right hand to stab into the carotid artery through the side of the Boss’s neck when he was kneeling on the ground.

Psssst…

-560

As he pulled out the rapier, fresh blood spewed everywhere. At this moment, Li Yao was already dripping with blood and looked very hideous.

-110 -100…

Li Yao quickly gave a second and third stab on the Boss’s neck and retreated.

Due to Li Yao’s super high attributes plus the attributes gained from the divine necklace, the damage he inflicted was surprisingly high.

Of course, when the Boss stood up, Li Yao could only inflict few points of damage, just enough to break the Boss’s defense.

This Boss’s attacks were very fierce, it was as if he did not care about having his skill broken by Li Yao. But no matter how fierce he was, he could not land a single hit on Li Yao.

In terms of form, there was a huge difference between Li Yao and the Boss. In front of the Boss, Li Yao’s figure looked very thin, but it was extremely elegant.

It looked as if he was dancing, advancing and retreating like the breeze. Although the Boss could cause the platform to tremble by just walking and his roars could even disperse the clouds, he still could not lay a single hand on Li Yao. This further infuriated him and made him more aggressive.

“Why does this feel so familiar?” Tina mumbled to herself. “This Boss looks as miserable as the one in the mine.”

KB laughed bitterly, “He’s much worse than that Boss, at least that Boss has slaughtered many players, and this one directly ran into a overpowered player like Liao Yuan.”

Although he looked highly upon Li Yao, he was terrified to see the five hundred damage points inflicted after the Skill Break. ‘What kind of monster is this?’ he thought. For the Skill Breaking mechanism, although the player’s attack would be critical, the base damage was based on the player’s attributes. Deducing from this point, the damage he dealt to monsters of the same level was at least two hundred damage points, otherwise it would not have been possible to cause five hundred damage points after a Skill Break.

The ability to inflict two hundred damage points was insane. Although in the past two days, everyone’s equipment had gotten much better and their Health had been increased, apart from MT’s defensive equipment and endurance, most players only had around two hundred Health.

In other words, facing Li Yao would mean danger as they could be killed in a matter of seconds, and it would only take one arrow.

“At this rate, this Boss will die after another few hundred Skill Breaks.” Tina said.

“Yes, that is if he doesn’t make a single mistake.” KB also did not know that this Boss actually had two forms.

Spectators in front of the TV and from the live broadcast were watching the fight in fascination, especially some Hunters. While recording the fight, they imagined themselves in the process of dodging and skill breaking in an attempt to learn the technique of gun parrying.

Even if they were able to learn the technique, they could only hang around in the wilderness as it would still be difficult to get into contests. Still, it would at least change other classes’ discriminatory perspective on Hunters, and Hunters would no longer have to face awkward situations when searching for a team.

In the game now, there were lots of Hunter groups. They were basically Hunters that no teams wanted, they got together to find ways to level up and discuss tips with each other. At the current stage, Hunters did not have pets and most of their archery skills were sub-par, making leveling up a huge hassle.

When the Boss was left with 40% Health after a number of Skill Breaks, the Boss flew mid-air with his body twisting and contorting. A green vortex appeared and a huge spider shadow enveloped the Boss.

With an ear-shattering roar, the body of the Boss twisted and changed into a giant Ghost Hunting Spider⁠—Baelidae.

Unlike ordinary spiders, Baelidae was a guardian for the main spider queen. Its status within the spider tribe was second only to the queen’s mate.

The Baelidae was good at fighting, its head looked like it was wearing a strange-looking monster mask, and its abdomen was equally huge and covered with a thick, heavy shell armor.

The spider’s legs were very sharp, like steel blades. His two forelimbs were like two razor blades, but they were even tougher.

Roarrrr…

The Baelidae faced the sky and roared, exuding a ferocious aura.

This was his second stage, spider form.

Everyone in the audience was aghast, none of them would have thought that the Boss would transform into a new form. They almost puked out their hearts.

“He’s done for.” This was the first thought that came to everyone’s mind. After all, no one knew what kind of abilities and skills the Boss had, thus increasing the difficulty to Skill Break by more than half.

KB’s gloomy face had turned for the better. It was better for him to fail this fight since no one would say that Liao Yuan’s skills were not good even if he did fail. Moreover, KB did not have to bow down to him anymore.

Roarr…

The Baelidae let out a roar again, what followed was green light that flashed around his mouth.

Poison Bomb!

Li Yao squinted his eyes as he pulled the trigger abruptly.

Bang…

Orangey-yellow bullet penetrated into the spider’s mouth and the green light suddenly disappeared. The Baelidae’s body crumpled to the ground.

Li Yao used two Shadow Flips to reach the back of the spider, he now had a giant sword in his hand.

He held the giant sword up high and it began to glow in a yellowish light, then a golden light, which then turned into crimson red. The third level Charge was completed.

The Great Sword hacked into the back of the Baelidae’s armor.

-600

After inflicting such a huge amount of damage, cracks started appearing on the back of the spider’s armor, and the armor crumbled. After having his skill broken, the spider’s armor had lost its effect, directly allowing Li Yao to break his skills successfully.

The huge spider stood back up again when it saw that Li Yao was not far behind him, his abdomen grumbled and bulged vigorously.

Death Web!

Faint sweat droplets rolled down from Li Yao’s forehead. The spider’s abdomen was bulging noticeably and its anus was wobbling and pulsating. He quickly simulated the spider’s wobble in his mind.

With the contraction of the spider’s abdomen, a silky white light appeared on its anus.

At this moment, Li Yao pulled the trigger.

Poof…

-198

An astonishing damage figure floated on the spider’s head. The spider’s abdomen quivered continuously and it fell to the ground.

Everyone that was watching the live broadcast felt a chill run down their spines, they let out a breath of cold air.

Poof…

With a pool of green blood, another terrifying damage figure appeared.

-1,200

Li Yao felt a jolt in his heart, that was the fatal point of the Boss’s second form. He was delighted and quickly gave the Boss two more stabs.

-450 -525…

Even the numbers proved once again that this was the fatal point of the Boss. Li Yao’s confidence grew, he figured that it would not take many Skill Breaks to finish off the Boss.

Just when everyone was cheering for Li Yao, AdorkableTong, who had been silent, suddenly warned Li Yao. “Big Brother, be careful!”

On the second platform, Tong immediately placed a Fire Totem and an Earthbind Totem on the side of the rope bridge that linked the second and third platform.

Qin Fengyi reacted and used the dagger in her hand to cut off the rope, the rope was severed into pieces.

At the same time, the figure of a Bandit appeared next to the totem. He had no mark on his body and was masked, so it was impossible to distinguish where he came from.

“You guys are bad, bad people! Die!” Tong did not attack the Bandit, instead she quickly incited a spell incantation and pushed out a wave of Lava Blast from her hands.

The Lava Blast was shot out over a hundred yards with a flaming tail and struck on the rope that was hanging on the other side. Although it did not do much damage, it still burned off the rope to the ground.

What followed next was the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, and the audience was dumbstruck when they saw what had happened. On the platform, a Bandit pounced toward Tong and another Bandit was lying on the ground. Everyone realized that it was a sneak attack.

Almost everyone’s first reaction was that Getaway Studios wanted to steal the Boss kill again, or they were trying to ruin Liao Yuan’s fight with the Boss…
